I hereby call on all freepers, wingnuts, and bible-thumpers.....
Please protest and attempt to disrupt screenings of Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11. Not only will you be helping by buying tickets, but you'll also be giving the movie even more Also, please continue your harrassment of theatres who are showing it. Write tons of nasty emails to theater executives who make the decision on how many screens the film gets played on. I'm sure calling them traitor cocksuckers will make them feel really bad about putting it on more screens after they see the profits the film is bringing in. Good old American capitalism!

So please continue doing whatever it is you're doing. We love you guys!

2. Is there any evidence on the Internet of a disruption campaign?
Beyond just the e-mails and phone calls to theaters? Is there a campaign going on to block theaters or disrupt screenings? Is there some evidence of this on the Internet?

5. Spineless cowards.
These people make me sick. If they believe in Bush so much and are so convinced that the movie is full of lies, why are they so threatened by it? What are they so afraid of?

12. Democracy & the Truth

They are afraid of everything.

So they choose to HATE instead of learn & evolve

They hate & they hate Democracy.

Liberal Democracy = Live & let Live

Republican Democracy = Live & let Die

7. Go ahead, make my day!
I have a nice, full can of mace, and I will use it LIBERALLY should anyone threaten my personal space or cause me mental disquietude and make me fear for my person.

Get it?:nuke:

11. DO NOT MACE!
Those people aren't worth your going to jail over. They are NOT WORTH IT. They are poor deluded creatures who will be crying into their cornflakes on Nov. 3, 2004!

Their pathetic attempts to disrupt the Moore film reek of desperation!

14. It's legal here
In fact, I took a self-defense class given by local police and they advised us on where to purchase.

Remember, I live in a state that allows concealed guns too - a little mace pepper spray carried by a woman is kind of small potatoes.

9. I said it before and I say it again...

If you own a digital camera, sneak it into the theater. If anyone starts to disrupt the movie, then make a recording of their actions.

13. Of course,
I live in Republican hell. About as conservative a place as you can get. No theaters in my county are showing the film (at least none listed yet). Closest place is about 45 minutes away. So as much as I'd love to report what I see Friday ...

15. Yes I agree. HEY WINGNUTS keep on keeping on. It will only help Moore!
Oh yes the more you Mike Moore haters plan to disrupt the film form being shown or even better try to bar people from seeing the film it will only give the film more pubicity and expose you people for the anti free speech types that tryed to stop rock and roll, prevent Dr King from speaking, and well you get the picture.
So see you there and IF I DO you can bet your bottom dollar i will be using my cell to call all the local news stations for you so it will not only give you nutballs a loony nazi soapbox and it will permote the film even more. Be sure to have one guy who can quote Rush or Savage virbatum..That always helps to put more cash for Moore and votes for Kerry. No one likes an ugly american. Its funny how it was perfectly fine for you guys to trash clinton but cant stand the taste of your own medicine. Enjoy!
Scott
